He is nicknamed as the dependable “Last Love” by girls in college. Seo Do-hyeon, Tae-o’s friend from college, is a serious person. I understand that the plot was necessary for what they wanted to show but the main romance was not important after all that. By the time they actually got together, I wasn’t interested. That is actually my favourite trope.īut the romance here was dragged on for so long and took multiple detours. Normally, I’m all for best-friends-to-lovers romances. The love triangle became cumbersome afterwards because it was dragged on for longer than necessary. The drama showed how you can like someone else and can grow apart from them due to situations. Now, I’m not a fan of love triangles AT ALL but I can admit that it was done well here. The main one was part of a love triangle. It was nice to watch the interactions between the characters with them dissing each other or acting like kids. Since the drama is slow-paced, there’s enough room for funny scenes to make the viewers laugh. What makes the drama actually fun to watch were all the hilarious moments peppered in. We focused a lot on character’s feelings, which became repetitive at times, and had a lot of slow moments. In the end, I was just wondering how they managed to buff it up to 16 episodes because the content was not much. My First First Love had 16 episodes, but the content of the drama was very little. I’m not someone who is good with slow paces, so this was another negative for me. Choe Hun and O Ga-rin honestly stole the show for me. The main characters had some growth but the supporting cast had great character arcs. I do with that the plot was done better but at least the character focus was done well. It was quite underwhelming.īut because it was character-driven, there was a lot of character growth. I binged all 16 episodes in a short span of days, and the drama didn’t leave much of an impression on me. The lack of any specific plotline means that there’s no true point to the Kdrama, which didn’t interest me. We don’t have a very specific plot going on, other than following the ups and downs of the main characters.
The drama is completely character-driven.I assume it was split just as a strategy and nothing to do with the plot of the drama. In fact, there wasn’t even a cliffhanger or a break in between the seasons. While marketed as two seasons, My First First Love is like any other with 16 episodes. I started the drama only after Netflix released both seasons. Source: Kpopmap my thoughts on the Kdrama
